I hope he's improving and glad to see, indeed that he's received the funding. I certainly have been grateful for his contributions to much of the music I love. From Spacemen3 to most recently the Brian jonestown Massacre performances, I've seen video of (which are brilliant, FIB Benicassim 2008, Glastonbury 2014 - just to name a couple), I am glad to seeing him making great music and hope he gets cured and stays healthy, so that he continue to do what he loves. I lost my brother 4 years ago to Hep-C and I am glad to see that there is hope now for those who are stricken by it.

Meant to mention that his writing is really great work. I think he's definitely artistically gifted and talented in more than just one area. Not only for the music, we all know and love, but he could have a career as an author as well. Great writing, Will! It's amazing that he's able to recall so many of those experiences in such detail. I know I couldn't/can't. I know I've seen Spiritualized at least once (Atlanta, The Roxy in 199?, 1994 I think), and I know I was heaven during the show, but I certainly don't remember many specifics, except I did get a glowy mainline shirt.
